WE SURVIVED...BARELY!

Just kidding. I am sure last night was like most first nights home with a new baby. We were up most of the night feeding and changing and everything else that comes with a newborn. It was all worth it and it was SO nice to finally have all of us together. 

Today we went to the doctor's office to get a baseline weight for Justin. He is 6 lbs 3.5 ounces. Every scale is different so they wanted us to weigh him on his doctor's scale so when we go back for his immunizations on Monday they can make sure he is gaining weight. He is 18 inches long as well. We also had a home care nurse come to our house this afternoon for his RSV shot. I felt terrible and he cried for a minute but did just fine. He has to have one a month until April. This is to help protect him from getting a cold which can be a lot harder on preemies than anyone else. Other than that, he has been sleeping and eating today...and so have we!
